What the SMTP Endpoint Integration Enables

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the internet standard for reliably transferring email between systems. In Progress Automate MFT, SMTP is the protocol you use to operationalize email-based delivery and alerting for managed file transfer workflows with the added benefits of built-in security and governance, centralized visibility and a simple point-and-click automation builder.

Typical SMTP Automation Use Cases

Governed File Transfers

Standardize email-based file transfer with partners, customers and vendors

Automated Email Notifications

Receive post-run email alerts based on the outcome of a task

Reduce Missed SLA-Risk

Trigger email notifications if a business-critical transfer fails or no transfer occurs

How Automate MFT Works with SMTP Endpoints

1 Configure

Create an SMTP authentication method in the Automate MFT management console.

2 Connect

Define an SMTP endpoint in the Automate MFT library. Provide a name, description, host/IP address, port (port number is usually 587), from email and the pre-defined authentication method.

3 Orchestrate

Use the endpoint in tasks as a source or destination to move files.

4 Run

Agents execute the task on schedule or on demand.

5 Audit

Monitor results with centralized logs and operational controls
